How to get not high: Cannabis Modification and Management

Effects of Weed Strains UK

Cannabis products vary drastically in potency and characteristics and for many medical users, the goal is to receive therapeutic benefits from cannabis without being impaired. Understanding how to manage or modify a cannabis high can really help.

CBD Dominant Products

CBD is non-intoxicating and provides some restrictions to THC intoxication. Many dispensaries now offer strains and products specifically bred for a CBD dominant ratio. These products can offer therapeutic values typical like pain relief, anti-inflammation, and reduced anxiety — but without cognitive impairment.

Microdosing

Microdosing is a unique and important consideration for those wanting to avoid intoxication. A microdose is usually around 2.5mg THC, compared to a standard recreational dose of about 10mg and greater. When microdosing doses are used appropriately, consumers will feel some mild pain or anxiety relief, but should not have any perceptual or cognitive impairment, and improve consumers ability to be functional and thoughtful throughout the day.

Method of Consumption Effects

Inhaled cannabis (via smoking or vaporization) causes effects that onset quickly, but may produce shorter effects making dosage easier to control. Edibles can last longer than inhaled cannabis but can be unpredictable and less easy to dose due to delayed onset and variability in the metabolism process. Tinctures or oil that can be taken sublingually are somewhat of a compromise as they will onset fairly quickly and produce moderate duration effects and the user should have better titration of effects.

Terpene Awareness

Some terpenes, like myrcene and linalool, would tend to be less stimulating/sedative than others such as pinene or limonene that would tend to produce more alerting experiences. Higher content of pinene specifically may offer some relief from the memory impairment that can be experienced with THC.

Countermeasures to Excessive Intoxication

If you find yourself experiencing a much greater intensity of psychoactive effects, there are a few things that may help dilute some of the effects you are feeling.

CBD – Using CBD oil, or CBD high cannabis products can assist cannabis’ dose of THC with heavy doses of CBD.
Black Pepper – Chewing black peppercorns or simply smelling some freshly ground pepper may dilute some anxiety
Hydration and Light Snacks – Drinking water and/or eating something light may dilute and metabolize some of the cannabinoids you consumed.
Calm Environment – Moving to a quieter, and more comfortable space may help reduce stimulation or input and create a calming effect.
Focused Breathing – Using deep breathing assists the higher centers in the nervous system and reduces panic responses characterized by THC.

Selection of Appropriate Strains

Cannabis strains typically called “sativas” tended to produce types of effects that were cerebral, and stimulating mentally. “Indicas” tended to produce physical types of responses that were not stimulating or sedative.

Mindful Consumption Practices

Maybe the best way to avoid multiple effects that are unwanted by the user is intentional habits with cannabis consumption. Specifically, starting low when presented with higher doses of unknowing cannabis products can result in being unmeasured as user increases doses. Users should also reflect on the amount of time that exists between doses of cannabis.
